Halls of the Dark Muse

Sunday night I was desperately flipping through the channels in seek of something to watch before I had to force myself to resign to bed for lack of any entertainment to keep me up, when I happened to come across this show on VH1. It was called Tool Academy. The idea behind the show was it was this group of the worst boyfriends, and of course some game show on a music video channel is going to be the thing that reforms them and fixes the relationship. But that is not the really good part.

So at first the guys do not know why they are there, they think the show is called Mr. Amazing, and that the show is to prove the most manly of men, and I swear to you, I exaggerate not here. Watching that group of men, it was literally like watching animals. I mean it was the most fascinating, disturbing and flabbergasting thing I have ever seen. I felt like it was some anthropologist study. I mean I never truly thought men like that actually existed. I thought it was just some stereotypical mythos. Watching them on that show, it really felt like I was at the zoo watching a primate exhibit.

I believe that they were literally within 2 minutes of starting to grunt, beat their chests and throw feces. This show really is all you need for proof of evolution, you cannot watch them and not see the striking similarities between man and beast, and how clearly we are related to monkeys.

I was watching the whole thing just gaping. I could not believe what I was seeing. It felt surreal.
